  1. That people have decided that AI now means Generative ML is deeply infuriating to me. I do put a lot of blame on OpenAI leadership for this nonsense. They are such irresponsible pseudoscentific twats.
  2. My twitter timeline is strangely filled with people posting Cloud-Tifa interactions and comparisons with others. There are a lot of signs
  3. lol. Barret is awesome though, and I like how much their friendship evolved from the start of Remake. My Cloud is definitely not brushing off Tifa But he is like a teenager badly hiding how hot he is for her.
  4. Just don't tell any of the passionate sides that it wasn't clear. They each think it was incredibly clear for their side I do agree with you though: they were wrong and it was deliberately left open to interpretation in the OG. I would even say that it's open in Remake. But in Rebirth, I feel like there is no room for interpretation. There are so many signs that Tifa is the canonical love interest. It even seems like Aerith knows that and mostly likes to tease Cloud.
  5. Oh, TBC, I meant in Remake. The Church scene is in Remake, not Rebirth. But then there are a whole bunch of side quests in Remake that expand on Kyrie and her grandmother. Rebirth does also have additional side quests with Kyrie, but thus far they really do feel like side quests: they're not critical to the story. The main quest feels pretty comprehensive so far.
  6. The church part is the main quest. He meant the other stuff where you interact with her more is in the side quests.
  7. Speaking of Red, he has an amazing scene on the boat ride with you play through the card tournament. Spoilers if you're not there yet.
  8. You can absolutely go on a date with Red! But who you get depends on your "relationship" status with each. Whoever has the most is who you get. So just make sure you dial it back a bit with the ladies if you want Red
  9. If my twitter timeline is anything to go by, Tifa is the world's favorite video game girlfriend. Aerith is great, but it's hard to compete with Tifa. Also, Square is making it extremely clear that Tifa is the canonical romance for Cloud.
  10. I think this game really emphasizes how much 16 suffered from not having a party experience. 16's biggest problems IMO are lack of party, lack of character customization, and painfully slow cooldowns. God I hate slow cooldowns in every fucking game that uses them.
  11. I probably will too once they release the inevitable "complete trilogy remaster' But I am going to have to pace myself and I probably won't 100% each that time either. Seems better to do it after you played each separately or you might hit some fatigue.
  12. Playing all 3 back to back will be a huge time sink. Remake is as long as OG FF7 if you do everything, Rebirth is even longer, and I suspect the final one will be similar. But for perspective that’s probably only a little longer than BG3
  13. I enjoyed the Piano and got to A rank on the first two, until I got to Barret's theme! That one is hard as fuck because the sound actually throws you off. When you hit a "note" it actually plays several distinct notes in sequence and that completely throws my timing off. That said, some of the "free form" songs people have been able to play on it is impressive!
  14. Well, there is no sudden death in this one. If there were I would have handily won a number of rounds I narrowly lost!
  15. I didn't like Fort Condor in this either. It was originally the (one) mini game in the Yuffie DLC and I enjoyed it a lot more in that. I'm not sure if this is the difference, but in the encounters in this one, the time limit felt far too short and arbitrary. I lost so many rounds down to the seconds because of the clock while I hacked away at the final base. The timer just made it all feel arbitrary and frustrating. Also, the fact that the timer didn't pause when you open the menu felt really dumb too. As I said, I can't recall if the previous one had a timer or not, but if it did, it was much more lax.
  16. It's fair to wait until part 3 is out (ME3 is a great example of fumbling in the final minutes ), but on its current trajectory I would rank this higher than 6. 6 is great and all, but it does feel dated to me at this point. Both in gameplay and presentation, and I think presentation is actually extremely important for being able to effectively deliver emotional beats. In a more apples to apples comparison, Remake/Rebirth just hits so much harder than OG 7 even on the same beats because they do so much more with the tech. And in addition to that, the remakes are expanding the characters and their interactions much more.
